Forza Horizon 5 Merrylillambo (#Merrylillambo) is the first FH5 Series 2 Photo Challenge you can complete in the Summer Season. Unfortunately, the FH5 Merrylillambo Photo Challenge is bugged for some players, but there is an easy fix you may want to consider. The problem with the Merrylillambo FH5 Photo Challenge is that it fails to mark the Mulege Holiday Market, which is the second requirement you have to complete.

Fear not, though, because below; I’ll tell you how to finish the Forza Horizon 5 #Merrylillambo Photo Challenge so you can get the corresponding points and the Smile! You’re On Camera! Forza Link Reward. So, for the Forza Horizon 5 Photo Challenge #Merrylillambo, you have to:

  • Photograph the 1997 Lamborghini Diablo SV
  • Photograph the Mulege Holiday Market

Forza Horizon 5 Merrylillambo Photo Challenge How To Get

The FH5 Mulege Holiday Market is found on the southern side of Mulege, the small town on my map above. If you head to the spot I have marked, you’ll find a small plaza with Christmas decorations. Before you do that, however, make sure you unlock the 1997 Lamborghini Diablo SV (pictured below).

This car is relatively cheap, and you can buy it for 174.000 CR directly from Autoshow or your Car Collection list.

Now that you know the exact location for his Photo Challenge and the car you need, you may think that all you have to do is drive to the Mulege Holiday Market, place your car nearby, and take a photo. Well, things are not that easy because here is where the bug(s) kicks in, and there are two factors that you have to consider:

  • The color of your car
  • The car’s position

Since  Playground Games devs forgot (again) to provide some essential information, you may notice that you’ll constantly fail the #Merrylillambo Forza Horizon 5 Summer Photo Challenge even though you have the required car and you are at the correct location. So, the first thing you’ll have to do is repaint the car if your Lamborghini has another color than the stock one. Specifically, you’ll have to:

  • Head back to your garage
  • Pick Designs & Paints
  • Choose Paint Car
  • Select Paint Body
  • Select the first Manufacturer Color (pictured below)

Great, now that your car has the correct color, head back to Mulege Holiday Market to deal with the second bug. This one is trickier because your car must be placed in a specific spot. When you get close to the market, you’ll notice several entrances. On your minimap, you’ll see an XP Board nearby (pictured).

This board marks the correct entrance. When you get close to it, you’ll see several presents on the sidewalk. The idea here is to place your car between the presents, as you can see in my screenshot.

This screenshot shows the correct position of your car for the Forza Horizon 5 Series 2 Merrylillambo Photo Challenge. You can also notice that you’ll have to move the camera a bit to the back to capture the Christmas Tree before taking the photo. Now, when you are ready, press up on your DPad and take the photo to complete the FH5 Series 2 Merrylillambo Photo Challenge.

Have Something To Add? Do It Here:

  1. Holy chaperone, thank you! I took the photo (after about 20 tries) between those gifts and it popped immediately. Thank you!

  2. If you are having trouble still raise the camera and tilt it down when you take the picture, try to get as much of the market in view as possible.. That is the only way I got it to work.

  3. man your the best though i would have to deal with not getting points again due to another bug
    worked first time with this guide thanks bro
